Toxoplasmosis Parties

In spring, Maya gave birth to a perfectly healthy girl. She and her husband Paul were devastated. “You’re sure she’s not sick?” The doctor shook her head, No.

They tried everything: Dietary supplements, toxoplasmosis parties. Nothing worked, the child was immune.

Doomed to a life of safety, timidity, of happiness with small things.

Brain parasites make you more entrepreneurial, apparently.
